  1. Strange that...
  2. Bring Asht… nope. Can’t even bring myself to say it.
  3. What I really want to know is, when will we have a match shirt and commemorative pre match ritual celebrating those 30 years?! Seems to be all the rage these days.
  4. It certainly could, doesn't change that Williams isnt. I think the other players around the more defensively minded midfielders can work to Mannings playstyle. The James/Williams effect is it slows the game down. When we need to be more dynamic. Interchanging in positions. Formations should be fluid in the modern game, especially in a playstyle like Manning wants to play.
  5. Would like to see his stats, ball retention rates, pass succession over 20 yards. I bet its not very good. For me, not good enough for a "top 6" team.
  6. Maybe an unpopular opinion. But, he's a passion merchant, glosses over his various inabilities because he punches the air/puts in an angry challenge every now and again. For me he and James are the reason Manning is unable to play his style of play and why we're looking to bring in some more mobile CMs. Would be happy to see none of them renew their contracts tbh. His passing range is generally poor, accuracy poor, positioning poor, shooting god awful. For example, in the Cardiff game he spent the majority hiding behind the 15 not wanting the pass.
  7. Murphy looking good!
  8. My main issue with Max is for all of the excellent saves he makes. He makes some equally questionable passes/mistakes. For example, on Tuesday. A brilliant save with his legs, to then follow up with a simple collection which he nearly parried out to an opponent. in short, is fine for what we need in the mid-championship level. Not a top champ team keeper for me.

    Tins on RB

    Manningball will never work with James and Williams in there, hence the pooling of CM talent to take over next year. We need mobile, box to box types that get us moving quickly. Not James who labours around the pitch and a slow Williams (who puts in a hard tackle every now and again and maybe pulls off a pass once in 10 attempts). Its crap that we're once again rebuilding but its required. I was a staunch advocate of Pearson and dont think he should have been sacked, but Manning is here, we can all see the way he "wants" to play. We just dont have the players to achieve it... Yet.
  10. Seems like Gaslighting runs from the top down.
  11. As others have probably said (I cba to read through 8 pages), the only way I can see why the Lansdown's are taking this stance is that they have investment or a buyer lined up for the club at the end of the season, of which the sale/investment depends on there not being a manager (so they can bring in their own) and a healthy FFP status for them to take on (for transfers etc). Its just weird how the investment talk has all but dried up which coincides with the lack of reinvestment / contract situation for our Nige. I for one want Nige to stay. He's doing a brilliant job and if it is the case that the above is true, then anyone coming into the club should be able to see that too. Add to this that Nige's back problems must be taking an effect on his mood and overall mental state, I know when I had my back issues (and again when they flair up) my mood goes down the pan, all of this culminating in the comments from NP.
  12. Always replies promptly on the platform that was formerly twitter. (X) Helpful as always.
  13. I have a feeling this was what was going to happen, then the fans kicked off so have had to go back and redesign.
  14. Haha! found his level then! Yep the only thing worse than that GKs ability was his attitude. Wont get anywhere.
  15. Just on Episode 6. That Charlie looked like he'd won a competition to play there. Didn't even run like a footballer. Was still adamant he was good enough though. The bloke couldn't even pass the ball and receive it to the same foot, even i could do that from 5 yards away.
  16. You seem to have Cornick still on the pitch...
  17. We got most of the decisions. Especially the very hairy moment where WBA should (IMO) have had a penalty for the Atkinson handball... (although Toby Osbourne would tell you his hands were by his side... Good old Bob.
  18. I see it as a term of endearment, clearly they recognize there is only one team in Bristol.
  19. Thanks Michael Owen, back to BT sport now
  20. Does anyone know which international channels have this on? Hoping to find a bar in Spain that can show it.
  21. We’re playing a more risk, more reward style of football, trying to attract the press to draw the opposition onto us then attack the space down then channels and behind. We may make a mistake that will cost us the odd goal but all in all it seems to be working. Naismith is key to this with his distribution and passing into the midfield. Unfortunately, with Vyner it’s more to do with the defensive strength rather than the odd loose pass.
